SelectSet Avantra 44 Imagesetter Family, Large format imagesetting solutions
SelectSet Avantra 44 is an industryleading, large-format PostScript imagesetter family that gives prepress and printing professionals the quality, reliability, and capabilities they need. Agfa recognizes that prepress and printing operations have different needs and budgets, so there are three models to choose from, offering different levels of quality. Each Avantra 44 imagesetter offers a generous 36×44.5″ (914 x1130mm) format that matches
most large-format presses. And all are extremely easy to operate, with a user-friendly touch-screen control panel and an extremely ergonomic design.

Agfa Avantra 44
With the SelectSet Agfa Avantra 44 family, there is a model that meets your quality and throughput needs today—and in the future. Plus, only Agfa offers a single point of contact for all key prepress elements, including imagesetters, RIPs, screening, media, and processing.

All SelectSet Avantra 44 models include the features that have made the SelectSet Avantra family the world’s leading family of internal drum imagesetters: IntelliTrack,™ Agfa’s patented transport system, ensures precise motion and consistent, artifact-free output; Agfa OptiSpot™ technology adjusts the spot size to eliminate dot gain, even at the highest resolutions; OptiFocus™ automatically adjusts the system to accommodate different media thicknesses; FlexMedia™ lets you use any width media, eliminating waste; to facilitate media handling, SelectSet Avantra 44 imagesetters feature EasyLoad, a hydraulic loading system that makes
it easy to load input cassettes. All SelectSet Avantra 44 imagesetters integrate seamlessly with an optional SelectSet Avantra OLP on-line processor.
Supporting the move to an all-digital workflow Each member of the SelectSet Avantra 44 family can handle a range of media thicknesses—including 4 mil, 8 mil, and 12 mil—allowing output of both film and Setprint polyester plate material. So any model can double as a platesetter (or duosetter) in a turnkey SelectPlate polyester platesetting configuration. An Avantra 44 imagesetter can expose Setprint polyester plates at resolutions up to 150 lines per inch for short-run spot color and black-and-white applications. And for longer runs, it can output film at higher line screens. A Setprint configuration offers a low-risk, flexible way to begin to benefit from streamlined computer-to-plate output, while putting an all-digital workflow in place.
Options that fit your needs and match your budget You can choose from three SelectSet Avantra 44 models—the high-performance Avantra 44XT, the high-quality Avantra 44S, and the high-vale Avantra 44E. All offer a set of features designed to meet specific resolution and throughput needs, while emphasizing the quality, speed, and other innovations that are the hallmarks of the SelectSet Avantra family.
